Review summary

This was a trip of a lifetime for us, we loved it. We stayed on the ship until Vancouver, it was actually a 20 day cruise not a 17 day. And if I had a complaint it was that the staff assumed we would get off in San Francisco, and it was almost like the cruise ended there, even though half the ship stayed on.
